Subject: This is THE version!
Cleanest version I've ever heard, by far. Everything is so absolutely crystal clear, I almost miss the old crackles and pops of the more familiar versions. Almost. I've always liked this show alot, but felt that it wasn't quite on the level of some of their September shows, most notably 9/17 and 9/21. Over the years it's made it's way out of my rotation, but now I have a newfound appreciation for it with this new version, so I may have to reconsider my stance.

Dark Star here I come!

Notes

I am deeply indebted to Seth Kaplan for this copy of this
epic show. I have had several different copies over the past five years,
and this is the cleanest I've heard. Notably, it lacks the small
clicks/pops in Dark Star that mar most circulating copies. It also
has both encores.

Known flaws:
There are moments of sound system disortion/buzziness at places,
such as the beginning of Promised Land, which are present on
all versions I've heard.
Specific glitches:
D1t07 (Rider): Subsecond dropout @ 11:14
D2t06 (Greatest): Subsecond discontinuity @ 3:36; may be
sound system. Brief bit of static @ 5:07.
D3t01/02: 2 second elision between Dark Star and El Paso
